Kl3in Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) Easy method to steal vendors most valuable items without spending points in stealth: First of all: You need Bounding Boots (blue random? drop/loot (can't remember where to get them, but in lategame you will have found this boots 2 or 3 times)) 1. Unlock the chest you want to loot 2. Position yourself out of sight --> wait till your cirlce isn't red/yellow anymore 3. Jump with Leap next to your target 4. Once you hit the ground --> push pause --> click chest while game is paused --> unpause 5. Item should be lootable without beeing seen by NPCs Once you move again, the stealth circle will start filling For example i stole this way: Grave Calling and Patinated Plate in Crookspur Devil of Caroc Breastplate in Periki's Overlook Scordeos Trophy in the Brass Citadel and many more. Edit: The content of the boxes are fix. Edited June 12, 2018 by Kl3in 12 Done this as Bleak Walker Paladin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorftek Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) Haha the stealthy jump. Nice find! These boots can be looted in Fort Dreadlight in the area where Captain Bennweth is. Not sure if I got his name right, the dude who tries to take ur boat at the very start. Edited May 27, 2018 by Dorftek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skazz Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Oh my. I knew Bounding Boots were awesome, but right now, but with this, they have unquestionably become my favorite in-game item. I now want a Berath's Blessing to have the entire party start with a pair of Bounding Boots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerith Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 The contents of the boxes seem to be randomly generated as soon as you enter the shop or the area. For example Uto's Gunsmithy: The chest right next to him --> He sells Dragon's Dowry and Scordeo's Trophy --> In that chest is only one of those and sorry for my bad english Is the item in the box permanently generated after the first time you visit the shop area, or does it change with every load? Anyways, amazing find, you can easily save 100k and get some op gear right in the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutlass Jack Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 My swashbuckling watcher has both these boots and escape and never figured this out. I feel silly now. Excuse me. Time to go 'shopping.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dejarik Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I think the part of the chest in Uto's gunsmithy having either Dragon's Dowry or Scordeo's Trophy might be wrong. I've never seen Dragon's Dowry in the chest, just the Trophy every time. I did some tests now, saved before going to Brass Citadel for the first time - it's always the Trophy.

ErlKing Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 You can also use firecrackers (special gloves) to distract NPC, it is even hinted in tutorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myztik Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 No need to bother with any of this, stealth detection goes away if anyone in your party is conversation with an NPC, just park someone in stealth next to whatever you want, talk to someone until the detection goes away, then leave the convo and pause 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Very true. No need for any ability - also stealth is not needed. Only sleight of hand if you want to pick people's pockets and mechanics to unlock their chests. But you've to unpause before initiating the conversation - else it will not work. 1 Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy1984 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) Nice find. More so because the infinite money glitch was fixed with patch 1.1 *.

Hulk'O'Saurus Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 To be perfectly honest with you guys, you might not even have to do this. I've been looting people's things here and there under Magran's Challange and what I notice is that if my sneak meter is not full, while even in the red, I just wildly mash the 'loot all' button as I am approaching the chest and it just works. But it has to be before the meter fills completely. It feels like there is a split second of loot invincibility for everybody... I kid you not.

Lampros Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Ok, I got it to work by initiating convo - without fancy gear or Rogue skills. But the window of opportunity is very small from when detection goes off to when it goes back on. Like 5 seconds? Maybe less. So you have to be super fast. I don't think I'd employ this tactic in Ironman mode, due to the chance of mis-click. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
